Those who have a need to "puff out their chest" and brag about how great they are, lack self-esteem and are insecurity about themselves. Just ask George Dana Gollin. When your wife is more sucessful than you are and you are kicked to the back burner of importance, I guess his remedy is to hang on the coat tails of those who are famous and well known in a sad attempt to elevate his own status. Where's our psychology majors, isn't there a name or phrase for this type of behavior?
